Feelgood Story Of SA Animation Company That Scored An Emmy Win [Video]

Sadly, Carte Blanche usually has its hands full with tales of corruption and other misdeeds.
Drug squads, smuggled cigarettes, the looting of VBS Bank – all in a day’s work for Derek and the team.
It’s already been a helluva week, so let’s pivot to something that South Africans can actually smile about.
Whilst animation studio Triggerfish was nominated in the Best Animated Short Film category for the 90th Academy Awards, they have since gone one better and won a much-coveted Emmy.
That was for the film Zog, which features the dragons you see above, released by UK-based production company Magic Light Pictures and animated by Triggerfish.
That’s all the more impressive when you consider some of the struggles they’ve faced over the years, and the long and bumpy road its taken to get to this point.
Their story was featured in this recent Carte Blanche segment:
